WATCH OUT FOR YELLOW STAGE 3 FOR SALE
This will, no doubt, come across as sour grapes but here goes: I used to own the yellow Stage 3 that blew up after only 1500 miles of ownership. I painfully spent the money on a fresh motor but had to sell it--only got $17,500 for it from eBay. S4Connection guy bought it and is now trying to flip it for a profit. Can't fault the guy for trying to make some money but PLEASE, ANYONE READING THIS: HE IS LYING ABOUT THE MILEAGE, THE CLUTCH AND THE STATE OF TUNE. The clutch is toast, the car now sports at least 3k miles less than when I sold it to him, and the new owner should see the engine grenade as mine did unless necessary actions are taken to get the fueling and programming up to where they need to be. Yeah, it still stings that I lost my car due to the previous owner's inabilities to tune it properly, but I don't want a potential new owner to expect a perfect, turn-key car as the seller has stated. BUYER BEWARE !!!

Thanks for not flaming me !!
I'm not a vindictive kind of guy, I just don't want someone's dream of finally getting their big HP S4 getting squashed by this guy misrepresenting this car like he is.

Just wanted motives to be taken as sincere......
seller went by several different first names when I spoke to him. He's a young kid that sells tires and other stuff on eBay and has several S4's on eBay at the same time usually. Can't speak on the other items he sells but the car that I tried to make as right as possible was slipping the clutch pretty bad when he picked it up. The car is still running K03 GIAC software, stock fuel pump, small green tops, stock I/C's unless he did the swap he stated for I/C's. Thanks Jason--
